This city, all they want us to be is ourselves. You love us how we are. We’re all a work in progress as men and you still love us and I thank you so much for embracing us.

You sacrificed for us - you're the real MVP.

So many people doubted me. They motivated me every single day, to be, who I am.

In the game of basketball, I play first off because I love it. I love to have fun. I love to run up and down the court.

I didn’t fall in love with it just because it was me playing. I fell in love with it because I’ve got guys like this – like these guys every single day that push me to be the best that I can be.

Whoever want my spot can play me one-on-one for it.

First off, I'd like to thank God for changing my life. It let me really realize what life is all about. Basketball is just a platform for me to inspire people, and I realize that.

My dream was to become a rec league coach. That's what I wanted to do. I wanted to stay home and help the kids out and be a coach.

Last, I just want to thank God again. He's the first and the last. Alpha and Omega. I thank you for saving my life.

This means the world to me that you guys are here with me celebrating with me. Thank you. Thank you. I can’t express it enough.

I freely acknowledge myself the servant of the people, according to the bond of service - the United States Constitution; and that, as such, I am responsible to them.

I'm in full transparency here of "Yeah, I'm trying to find my financing."

I don't have any health problems, but to keep your health improves your quality of life.

When you're very young and you learn something - a fact, a piece of information, whatever - it doesn't connect to anything.

So the well educated man can learn to sing and dance well.
